Dashboard illuminated with too many warning lights

Just a couple tweaks to the above...

Personally, I prefer to do the charge first to 80 instead of 70, then the discharge. 30% isn't always attainable. The car will cut-off at 40% but sometimes a really weak block will cause it to drop dramatically lower almost instantaneously. You know the discharge is done when the ICE kicks on.

 

I am curious as to how much of a deal you got on this vehicle from the auction sale. I wish you the best in your venture, but please be careful. This may cost you a lot more in the end.

 

Great! I feel better knowing you are having someone with experience helping you. Have fun!! Keep us informed on your progress..................and of course, send some pictures!!!

 

You need to reset the immobilizer

Connect a trickle charger

Turn key to ON

30 minutes later remove charger then turn to Ready ICE should kick on

 

I don't think the immobilizer ECU needs to be reset unless either the HV ECU or immobilizer ECU were replaced.

In any event the OP should not expect the car to start unless the failed battery modules were replaced.

 

They might also want to push the handle of the orange safety plug straight down.

 

Ya i would double check the safety plug, then maybe dc and reconnect the 12v battery which should have been connected last. Also check voltage of 12v battery.

 

Codes P3019 and P3021 are the important ones. They mean battery blocks 9 and 11 are reading low. A block is two battery modules. The count starts opposite the battery computer. One of the 17th or 18th module is bad. One of the 21st and 22nd modules is bad. Often but not always the bad modules can be found with just a volt meter. The voltage of bad modules can recover at rest to make them hard to spot.

Did you replace any modules? With the count starting opposite the computer which modules?

Have you read the codes again?

Inserting the orange safety plug requires three distinct moves. First is to push the plug in. Second is to rotate the handle up. Third is to push the handle straight down. The third step closes a 12 volt circuit that lets the car know the plug is in place. Without this confirmation the main battery relays will not close and the car will not start. When attempting to start the car you should hear the relays close.

Ummm... it's not elite auto, is it? 2009 w/50K sounds like the usual scam.
